Walk Leader : John Adams
John Adams is a walk leader for a group of walkers known as the Wyre Ramblers. On the coach for each trip John provides a brief printed summary of the planned walk for those wishing to join him.
The walks his group undertakes make good use of not being constricted to a circular route. With a suitable dropping off and pickup point John plans many fine walks along some of the less frequented footpaths of Northern England.

Today's walk is fairly strenuous with quite a difficult descent into Stonethwaite. However, we will be afforded some of the best views that the Lakes has to offer - weather permitting of course!
